Abstract: The National Health Service
Corps (NHSC), administered by the

Administration, is committed to
improving the health of the nation’s
underserved by uniting communities in
need with caring health professionals
and by supporting communities’ efforts
to build better systems of care. The
NHSC programs provide scholarships
and repay educational loans for primary
care physicians, dentists, nurse
practitioners, physician assistants,
behavioral health providers, and other
primary care providers who agree to
practice in areas of the country that
need them most. The NHSC invites
individuals who are affiliated with
academic, clinical, trade, and other
public health related organizations to

Ambassadors are dedicated volunteers
who help educate and inform
prospective NHSC members.
Ambassadors give their time and talents
to spread the word about the
opportunities available through the
NHSC and serve as additional local
resources for current NHSC members.
NHSC Ambassadors inspire and
motivate students and providers to
provide primary health care in
communities with limited access to
care.
The NHSC Ambassador Portal will
serve as both the application interface

Information Collection Request Title:
Special Study—Emerging issues related
to Affordable Care Act (ACA)
Implementation: The future of Ryan
White Services: A Snapshot of
Outpatient Ambulatory Medical Care
OMB No. 0915–xxxx—NEW.
Abstract: The Health Resources and
Services Administration, HIV/AIDS
Bureau (HRSA/HAB) implements the
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
(RWHAP). This program provides HIVrelated services in the United States for
those who do not have sufficient health
care coverage or financial resources for
coping with HIV disease. Starting
January 1, 2014, the ACA began making
health care coverage available to many
HIV-positive individuals who did not
previously have access to such coverage.
This ACA expansion of health coverage
will impact a significant portion of Ryan
White HIV/AIDS Program’s (RWHAP)
traditional clients who will be moving
into third party reimbursement care.
The transition will require increased
support and coordination to ensure
clients do not experience gaps in
coverage, or gaps in care. The purpose
of this evaluation study is to assess the
current status of Ryan White services
during the early and later stages of ACA
DATES:
implementation and to collect
information on service provisions,
quality of care, barriers, gaps, and
challenges related to ACA
implementation.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The ACA will offer new
options for obtaining health care
services for many individuals with HIV.
Due to these changes, additional
information concerning staffing,
continuity and coordination of care, and
utilization of RWHAP funds to provide
essential services is necessary. Data
from this evaluation study will be used
to assess the current status of Ryan
White services during the early (January
2014 to June 2014) and later (July 2014
to December 2014) stages of ACA
implementation and how well the
RWHAP is positioned to improve
clinical outcomes, including viral
suppression, retention to care, and
linkage to care services.
Likely Respondents: HIV Providers
and Administrators from RWHAPfunded facilities.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
